Benefits of technology

This solution allows for a compact camera unit with enhanced zoom capability, suitable for thin and light electronic devices, by effectively reducing the height of the long-focal-length camera module while maintaining high photosensitive performance.

Problems solved by technology

This brings problems to assembly, especially in today's pursuit of thin and light electronic devices.
Therefore, how to increase the focal length of the long-focal-length lens while ensuring that the size of the periscope camera module with the long-focal-length lens is not increased or even optimized is an urgent problem to be solved.

Abstract

The present invention provides a camera unit with a light steering mechanism and application thereof, wherein the camera unit includes a long-focal-length camera module and a wide-angle camera module, wherein the wide-angle camera module provides a wide-angle image, and a ratio between an equivalent focal length of the long-focal-length camera module and an equivalent focal length of the wide-angle camera module is not less than 4, wherein the long-focal-length camera module includes a light steering mechanism, a long-focal-length lens and a long-focal-length photosensitive assembly, wherein the light steering mechanism is used for turning the light to pass through the long-focal-length lens to be received by the long-focal-length photosensitive assembly, wherein a height dimension of the long-focal-length camera module does not exceed 5.6 mm.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The present invention relates to zoom field of dual camera modules, in particular to a camera unit with a light steering mechanism and application thereof.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]At present, zoom of a dual camera module relies on a difference between physical focal lengths of a wide-angle lens and a long-focal-length lens to achieve a “wide-angle” or “long-focal-length” shooting effect.[0003]Since a height of the long-focal-length lens is higher than that of the wide-angle lens, there is a height difference between them. When a higher zoom magnification is required, the height of the long-focal-length lens will be designed to be higher so that a ration of the focal length of the long-focal-length lens and the focal length of the wide-angle lens is greater. This brings problems to assembly, especially in today's pursuit of thin and light electronic devices.[0004]In order to solve this problem, some manufacturers design the camera module with the l...
